nixternalhas anyone here really taken a good look at PCLinuxOS and tried to figure out why it is killing Ubuntu off in DistroWatch? I like the fact KDE is winning, but Kubuntu isn't the winner, according to them, to us it is though! :)01:37
nixternalit can't be the restricted stuff all that much anymore, because ubuntu offers that as well01:38

=== Hobbsee needs to read tons of backscroll, and write release notes anyway

HobbseeScottK: update, and check apt-cache madison foo, or use rmadison -u ubuntu foo, or check archive.ubuntu.com, or check the removal blacklist.  assuming it's actually been blackliste06:00

ScottKThanks.06:00
nixternalnow I just need to submit this test06:28

Stecchinowhat's the use of the applet when you can not see what is in the trashcan10:56
Stecchino+ I keep my panels to an absolute minimal size10:57
Stecchinoanother problem I see: because kcontrol is not easily accessible and systemsettings doesn't provide a way to change file associations, it's hard to change the default filemanager11:01
Stecchinounless you provide a new tab in "default applications"11:01

shtylmanWell, my biggest input was toward the KDM login theme/screen. When it first came up a few things hit me that I was turned off by. The first one was the user selection list, although arguments can go back and forth on this, and I am sure there was a reason for turning it on, I feel that it takes up too much space (especially if there is only one user) and also ruins the clean image on the login screen.

shtylmanare the compiz packages in repos currently for compiz old? or fusion? and is there a plan to move to fusion?05:39
Hobbseeshtylman: the gutsy lot are close to current05:41

ryanakcaRiddell: do you know if Kubuntu / Ubuntu has an AUP that I could use for the server, or if I should just modify the one from SANS , and run it by someone? (If we need an AUP)05:59
Riddellwe don't have one06:00
RiddellHobbsee: I won't make it06:00
HobbseeRiddell: ah06:00
ryanakcaRiddell: ok, thanks :)06:03
shtylmanis there anyone currently working on an app to make enabling/disabling desktop effects easy in kde? sorta like the gnome one? and would this be something that users could benefit from?06:06
Riddellshtylman: it would be nice to have.  there was a kcontrol panel for beryl and I don't know if it still exists, but it should be added there06:07
Hobbseeerm...that doesnt exist in gutsy, does it?06:07

ryanakcakwwii, Riddel: hmm. It (KDM & Ksplash kubuntu logos) look fine in inkscape, I'm guessing maybe when exported to png, part of it got cut off? So, all that I'd have to do is reexport it, stick the fixed version in k-d-s and commit?10:27

kwwiioh, no...feel free to update what you have done10:29
